Cheap Jerseys Online — Even before they've played a game together

"He knows they never beat us, so we're all right," Ellerbe said.
DAVIE,Cheap Adidas Superstar China, Fla. (AP) — Even before they've played a game together, the two new linebackers for the Miami Dolphins have formed a strong bond, overcoming differences in their backgrounds that could cause a rift.
Wheeler and Ellerbe were inseparable for much of training camp, often walking on and off the field together and standing side by side when on the sideline.
Miami signed the two free agents to five-year deals in March and parted with Karlos Dansby and Kevin Burnett, the team's top two tacklers in 2012. Ellerbe received a $34.75 million contract, and Wheeler signed for $26 million.
"I feel we're going to be a good tandem,China College Jerseys," Wheeler said. "We know each other pretty well now. We're good friends, and we're going to have fun. He's fast, physical and smart. We play similar. We have the same mentality. I think we'll do well together."
The Dolphins want their new tandem to do more than coexist,Cheap Adidas NHL Jerseys China. The ability of Wheeler and Ellerbe to disrupt plays with their blitzing skills is expected to result in more takeaways for a defense that found them tough to come by last year.
The Dolphins will find out whether the change is an upgrade beginning Sunday,Cheap Soccer Jerseys For Sale, when they open the season at Cleveland.
That made them cheaper than Dansby and Burnett. They're also younger and faster.
Dannell Ellerbe attended Georgia, while Philip Wheeler went to Georgia Tech.
Defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle described Wheeler and Ellerbe as "difference-makers."
Ellerbe and Wheeler don't possess dazzling takeaways statistics, either. But the Dolphins believe the duo, along with Pro Bowl defensive end Cameron Wake and top draft pick Dion Jordan, can be deployed in various pass-rushing combinations to force more mistakes by the offense.
"As long as he knows I'm smarter than him because I went to Georgia Tech, there's no problem," Wheeler said.
"We'll determine if we were right in terms of making the switch here as we go down the road," Coyle said. "Certainly what we've seen in practice are two guys who are very explosive, play physical and play a very aggressive style of game. They're very good blitzers, and we felt going into the offseason we had to improve in that area — to get our linebackers more productive in the blitzes."
Ellerbe is a fifth-year pro with only 14 career starts, but he earned rave reviews filling in for an injured Ray Lewis in 2012 and helped Baltimore win the Super Bowl. He had expected to remain with the Ravens, but they were unable to match the Dolphins' contract offer because of salary cap constraints.
"The thought was that we needed to get faster and more explosive and more physical at the point of attack," general manager Jeff Ireland said. "They're two guys that get their hands on a lot of balls, they play on all three downs, they're physical and they can run. It just made good sense to us."

Wheeler spent his first four NFL seasons with the Colts and played last season for the Raiders, where he had career highs of 109 tackles and three sacks. That makes Miami his third team in three years.
Defense has been Miami's strength the past three years, but the unit slipped to 21st in the NFL in yards allowed in 2012, and the Dolphins tied for fourth-worst in takeaways with six fumble recoveries and 10 interceptions. Dansby and Burnett had none.
"It doesn't feel weird. It's kind of fun," he said. "I got to see three places, from the East Coast to the West Coast. I look at it as a positive. Now I'm on the East Coast and it feels good here. I love it. I'm not looking to go anywhere else anytime soon."
"We are both learning,Air Force Scontate Online, so we're going to need each other to get through this thing,Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale," Ellerbe said.
